Hello Guest!
Welcome to the official Square Foot Gardening Forum.
There's lots to learn here by reading as a guest. However, if you become a member (it's free, ad free and spam-free) you'll have access to our large vermiculite databases, our seed exchange spreadsheets, Mel's Mix calculator, and many more members' pictures in the Gallery. Enjoy.

Hope you have the book! This is a great place to hang out. But the book will give you a solid introduction for garden success. You don't want to skip the details which could happen if you only read this forum. Just some friendly advice.

Welcome to the forum SallyFry! Keep us posted on how you are doing. You will probably notice comments that we love pictures. Well we do! I think you will enjoy this forum as they are so friendly and helpful!

Thanks for the welcome llama momma! I do have the book (actually all of Mel's books) and have used the SFG method for years. I'm actually finishing up the SFG instructor certification training this week and look forward to sharing this method with others in a more formal setting.

Thanks Triciasgarden for the welcome! I will figure out how to post pictures this week and share some.

Welcome SallyFry, from So Cal! Congrats on doing the SFG instructor cert. How was it? What did it cover? I'm new to the forum and SFG and I haven't seen anyone share their experience about going through the instructors cert training yet. Do share!
